No one. NO ONE in their right mind can respect such a venal immoral grifting little person.
One thing a true general should have in their bag of tricks is the ability to quickly and accurately sniff out losers.
He has therefore introduced great doubt about the decision to make him a military keader.
Colin is THE Poster Boy for people who don’t know who they are or what they stand for. This guy’s as pathological as B-HO and even worse, as he simply wants to “be liked” and, in the process, no one ultimately does.
What he doesn't want the world to know, is that he had his doubts, but played along anyway.
If Colin Powell was white, he might have been a reasonably successful manager at a Wal-Mart store.
Powell was just the ORIGINAL AFFIRMATIVE ACTION GENERAL, he just stuck with it long enough to become the first AFFIRMATIVE ACTION CoJCS.
An affirmative action hire and nothing more.When the rubber met the road his true colors shown thru.
So glad to read other ppl saying the same kinds of things about Powell. I called him a whiny bitch earlier, a malicious gossip, due in part to reading his own words, where he talks to another guy about having to have a tantrum to get some attention from Clinton’s minions; crybabies about not being able to charge a high enough fee; calls white people poor white trash; etc etc.
I keep thinking about how Americans trust a man like him to be better than the rest, because he’s responsible for so many lives, and leading from a position of strength—to find out what he’s really like, makes his military leadership very suspect, and his character lacking.
